What is Grid?
The grid is a complex and dynamic system designed to ensure that electricity is reliably delivered to meet the needs of consumers while maintaining stability and efficiency in the power supply.

Why Frequency will go down?
Frequency in the electrical grid goes down when the demand for electricity exceeds the supply. This imbalance can occur due to several reasons:
1. Sudden Increase in Demand: A spike in electricity usage that the current generation capacity cannot immediately meet.
2. Generation Loss: Failure or shutdown of a power plant, leading to a sudden drop in electricity supply.
3. Transmission Failures: Issues in the transmission network, such as line faults or failures, preventing electricity from being delivered effectively.
4. Insufficient Generation: Inadequate generation capacity or delays in bringing additional generation online during peak demand periods.

When supply is less than demand, the system frequency drops, indicating that the grid is unable to maintain the balance required for stable operation.
